Brannon and - Mctiinnis. They were
all indicted and tried tor the muir
der of Vaughn. The trial came off in 1850.
Pettyjohn, Freeland and L. Q. c. McGinnis
were convicted of murder and sentenced to
be hung. The other two were sent to the
penitentiary. Freeland was hung in 1850.
McGinnis broke Jail, was recaptured and
hung i'll 1861. Pettyjohn broke Jail when
McGinnis did, and has been at large ever
since. 1t is rumored here that the Sheriff
of Forsyth has gone after Pettyjohn. 1t is
said that murder will out" and If Petty

violators of the law will begin to have some
respect for the law.
Upper Broad street, Augusta, was the
scene of n peculiar affair, Wednesday, in
which little Don Costello but years of age,
was badly lacerated by cat. He was play
ing in an unused yard next to his mothers
residence, black, vicious-looking house cat
forming part of the company. For no APP
parent cause, and without warning, the
animal sprang at the little fellow, and in
an instant was biting and scratching him
like tiger. Don fought and screamed, but
each moment the maddened cat
used its teeth and claws with more
telling effect. Blood spurted in
every direction, and the boys clothes were
saturated. He ran for the street, the mad
dened animal following and attempting to
renew the attack, but assistance was at
hand, and in few moments the gallant
boys of fire company No. had killed the
blood thirsty brute, carrying the wounded
boy to his mother Then it was discovered
that his hurts were not only painful, but
serious, he having been bitten seventeen
times, besides numerous scratches. His left
leg arm and fingers were considerably torn,
causing much loss of blood. Medical aid
was summoned, the wounds dressed, and at
last accounts he was resting easily.

The five o'clock tea has become such
an established institution that an Eng
lishwoman has been moved to write o
cookery. book especially adapted to this
occasion. Evidently, if one may judge
from the contents of this little volume,
the tea has outgrown its simple form of
mere bread and butter aud tea, and
cakes of all kinds, sandwiches and va.
rious cups and cooling drinks have been
added to the list of delicacies that may
be offered to guests. The future of the
five o'clock tea seems we'll established
and the writer looks forward to the
time when the five o'clock tea will take
the place of heavy wedding breakfasts,
since marriage hours have been extended
TO the afternoon. Well, whatever may
become of it in the future, it is in high
favor now, and, as fashionable enter
tainment, seems or the moment to take
precedence of all others. 1t is an easy
way of entertainment, simple and in
expensive manner of returning social
tavors, and has proved great boon to
society people of limited means to whom
a dinner or q large party was an impos-
sibility, And after all. too, in this age
of extravagant living, it is pleasant to
return to something in the way OF sim
plicity of entertainment. There is o
good chance to show pretty china and
all sorts of dainty devices in the way Of
service. 80 that the occasion may be
made picturesque as well. .--[Beston Her

SWEET CHARITY.
The Ladies, Benevolent Society,

The Ladies', Benevolent SOcIetys
and It's Work.
At the stated meeting Of the Ladies'
Benevolent Society held the past week,
the President, Mrs. c. Ducommun, in.
formed the board that the Society had
received many donations at Christmas.
Their appeal of last week has been gen.
erously responded to, three gentlemen,
one from Pasadena, offering to buy the
invalid chair required. The chair was
bought and the unfortunateperson using
it now blesses the generous giver.
Many clothes have been sent in from
every quarter, but still more children's
clothes, blankets and comforters would
be acceptable. Great cases of destitu.
tion were brought during the year to
the notice of the ladies, and were re-.
lieved as far as possible. The ladies
also decided to give grand charity ball
about the 18th of February. The meet
ing was closed by motion to
thank their friends for their kind sup
port and the press for unremitting
favors.
The ball will be grand affair. The
demand on the ladies for help this win
ter has been frequent and urgent. Funds
are now very low in their treasury.
But this work is so well understood in
Los Angeles, as carried on by these ex.
cellent ladies, that they are never al.
lowed to appeal in vain.

SACRAMENTO, January 22.-The State
Board of Examiners, of which Governor
Bartlett is Chairman, adopted rule at
its meeting yesterday, which will inter-
est Sheriffs throughout the State. 1t
provides that hereafter no allowance
will be made to Sheriffs for assistants in
transporting prisoners to State prisons
aud insane asylums, unless the claim Is
accompanied by a certificate OF the COM
mitting Judge that the assistance was
necessary; also that not more than one
assistant will be paid for unless the
Sheriff himself appears before the Board
with the Judges certificate and his own
affidavit that the additional service was
necessary. The rule takes effect after
February lst. The necessity for it is
due to the practice of some Sheriffs in
transporting their friends and acquaint.
